My day so far…

Went to a garden centre called “Blomsterlandet”, it’s a big chain and they have the popular things but nothing really exciting and the plants are… well they are cheap. There used to be another garden store called “Hortus”, the plants were a little bit more expensive but the quality was much better, now it’s more about quantity and not quality I’m afraid.

I managed to leave the place with this weird looking toad… with a crown on his head, what the F? It’s not my style at all but he has these big eyes and he looked at me like, “Save me!” and I had to have him. He’s called “Prins Padda” which means, Prince Toad (very creative) and I placed him in The Tea Corner. My mom bought a crossed eyed gnome… I find those sorts of things tacky but, oh well.

At the grocery store I bought some pansies for Inka Dude and some Oregano, last year there were lots and lots of butterflies swooping around my other plants and I want more butterflies so I got one more and I planted it by the greenhouse. But by the looks of it I’ll need a peppermint as well, wow!

A few seeds got planted in pots:
Sunflowers “Magic Roundabout”
Sweetpea “Bijou”
Echinops bannaticus
Echinacea purpurea ”White Swan”

Yesterday I planted a few things as well:
Horned Pansy
Dipsacus fullonum
Aimées Passionflower
Aimées Cardinal Climber Ipomoea × multifida
